Baby R’s First Night

Baby R fast asleep with his lovey on his face. (a common soothing thing babies do)

Baby R is a sweet 6 month old who every night slept on dad to begin with then took a small feeding before he was put in his rock ‘n’ play, he then took one more middle of the night feed and up at about 7. Doesn’t sound so bad right?!?! Well naps were another story. Most naps had to be in the stroller, car, and if they were lucky in the swing. Mom and Dad have tried to get baby R in the crib before but were unsuccessful until last night! Here are mom’s notes.

640- tubby

655- lotion pjs in room- screaming

705- bottle

730- finished 6 oz , was giving tired cues, in crib, screaming

750- sleeping 🙂

1015- dream feed – ate 2 oz

1220- woke up, whimpered a bit and back to sleep a few mns later

1- woke up,coughed, little whimper and back to sleep

450- eyes open, fidgeting and playing with lovie

520-sleeping?

540- light crying/fidgeting

555- sleeping?

645am- awake/crying! Up

(when I put question marks next to if he was sleeping it was because he was facing away from monitor so I couldn’t tell if his eyes were closed)

About Me!

My name is Mattie Trigo. I am a California Native currently residing in the Central Valley. I am a mother of two adorable tots and am going on 5 years of marriage to my loving, hysterical, and hard working husband! I am a photography enthusiast and believe that love ❤️ water 💦 and plants 🌱 can save your life!
I have an AA in environmental horticulture a BA in Sociology and am currently a student at Palo Alto university pursuing my masters degree in Psychology: MFT/ Counseling (June 18' estimated graduation date.) I guess you could say that I love to learn. My passion for education coupled with my fascination for life and people has brought me here.
I always knew that I would be an entrepreneur. My counseling goals came in my early 20's while working as an Instructional Assistant for a preschool for autistic children. Here is where I began learning about evidence-based practices to manage behavior (Applied Behavior Analysis)
Fast forward a few years. In 2013 I welcomed my first child into the world and guess what, he didn't sleep. It wreaked havoc throughout my entire life, it was then that I made Sleep a priority. I spent the next few months reading, studying, and researching every bit of information I could get my hands on regarding sleep in children and infants. I put together a concrete plan followed it and got my sweet boy sleeping like a dream in a matter of just a few days.
What was I going to do with the excess of information I had? Certainly, there were many other moms out there that needed my help! I got a certification and began my journey.
I started noticing a trend, moms who have children who did not sleep were showing signs of anxiety. Their relationships were suffering and they forgot to take care of themselves. Considering I am pursuing my degree in counseling, I decided to put together an Adult Sleep Program. This program focuses on sleep as a 24-hour job. I help my clients reclaim their precious sleep through mindfulness practices, tailored guided meditations, creating a workable routine, dream interpretation, Sleep anxiety coaching, and much more!
If your family is suffering from lack of sleep, whether it be due to a child or your own sleep anxiety, I am here to help! I am prepared to work with any age across the life span, reclaiming their health and sleep.
